    satisfying breakfast
    noisy ships

    My stay at the Sofitel was delightful. The River view from my Luxury Twin Room was breathtaking. Staff professionalism impressed me greatly, and the variety at breakfast was satisfying. However, I noticed some noise from the nearby ships. Overall, a memorable experience in a beautiful setting.

    infinity pool
    karkadeh juice
    faint odor

    Our stay was simply delightful, especially enjoying the lovely infinity pool and the calming massages at the spa. The spacious room had a great view and I loved sipping the cold Karkadeh juice at the lobby, a nice touch! The only hiccup was a faint odor in the hallway, but it didn't really take away from all the good vibes. 😊

    Can just recommend for a whistle-stop

    Exceptional room, exceptional view, featuring a beautiful terrace by the Nile and a delicious breakfast with a wide variety of good food, all within a convenient distance from the Metro at the doorstep.

    Nothing it was perfect.

    exceptional housekeeping
    service inconsistency
    hidden fees

    The hotel boasts stunning views of the Nile and exceptional housekeeping that truly made the experience memorable. However, service inconsistency, especially during breakfast, and hidden fees marred the overall enjoyment. Still, the relaxing atmosphere and kind staff left a positive impression.

    stunning views
    comfortable beds
    helpful staff
    pool cleanliness
    room condition

    I stayed at Sofitel Cairo for three nights and enjoyed the stunning views of the Nile from my Luxury Twin Room. The bed felt super comfy, perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring. Breakfast truly impressed me with its range of freshly baked pastries and local dishes. Staff stood out for their professionalism, helping me set up presentation equipment quickly and effectively. However, the swimming pool needed regular cleaning due to an unpleasant smell that took away from the experience. My room had some signs of aging, like chips on the floor and dated furniture that really could use a makeover. I faced some service issues during breakfast. my order came quickly but felt rushed and out of order. Despite the pool situation and room decor, I appreciate the overall ambiance and helpful staff. I’m just hoping they address these areas for improvement in the future.

    The stay was impressive with a stunning Nile view from the Luxury Twin Room. The breakfast was one of the best I've encountered, featuring freshly baked pastries and an array of local dishes. The staff was professional, assisting efficiently with all my business needs, including setting up my presentation equipment and ensuring all services were timely.

    The swimming pool required regular cleaning due to an unpleasant smell.

    gorgeous view
    spacious room
    leaky shower

    The restaurants were fantastic, and our room had plenty of space with a nifty Nile view. Perfect location to soak in the vibes!

    But my shower had a pool party—water everywhere! And that green carpet? More retro than chic!
